What 28430 covers

This service covers nonoperative treatment of a talus fracture when the physician does not manipulate the fracture to change its position. An orthopedic or foot and ankle surgeon may provide care in an office, emergency department, or hospital setting, with immobilization such as a cast or splint as clinically appropriate. The code is specific to the talus, one of the bones forming the ankle joint; fractures of the calcaneus or other tarsal bones are coded elsewhere.

Choose this code when the documented treatment is closed and does not include manipulation. If the physician manipulates the fracture, uses percutaneous skeletal fixation, or performs open fixation, select the code matching that service instead. The record should identify the talus fracture and support the treatment method. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued is paid in full and other procedures are reduced to 50%. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

28430 billing questions

How does this differ from 28435?

Use 28430 when the closed treatment does not involve manipulation. Use 28435 when the physician manipulates the talus fracture.

Can routine casting be reported as another fracture-treatment service?

No. The cast or other immobilization is part of treating the talus fracture; it is not a second fracture-treatment service.

What documentation supports code selection?

Document the talus fracture and that treatment was closed without manipulation. If manipulation or fixation was performed, the record should support the corresponding treatment code instead.

What does the 90-day global period include?

It includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.

How are bilateral treatment and other same-session procedures paid?

Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
